WebGL animations convert any element to image with html2canvas.js, then apply effects to image with custom GLSL shaders. Best use is for simple elements like heading, button or image.

Repeat

By default, entrance animation will play when element enters the viewport for the first time. With option repeat enabled, the animation will play each time element enters the viewport.

Lock to scrollbar

Instead of fixed duration entrance animation, we can make the animation progress depend on the scroll position of the element. If the element is below the viewport, the animation progress will be 0. As we scroll the page down, and element is moving towards the middle of the viewport, the animation progresses. The end of animation is when element reches the middle of the viewport. Lock to scrollbar option can be enabled for any animation.

Mouse Effects

AnimateGL also offers mouse-driven distortion effects, including:

• Pull – with options for strength, size, RGB shift, and ease

Scroll triggered animations

Entrance animation is played when when the element enters the viewport, when it becomes visible on the screen.

Viewport entrance threshold

By default, entrance animation start to play when 70% or 200px of the element enters the viewport.
